Fox News is an easy target because of their motto. I wonder if that was originally conceived as satire.

I guess you're referring to "Fair and Balanced". That was retired a few years ago... if you can believe NY Magazine. :) http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2017/06/fox-news-is-dropping-...

Yep, that's what I was thinking of. Didn't realize they actually stopped using it. I haven't watched TV in many years, I am falling behind the times.

A quick Google search suggests they now say "most watched most trusted" instead. That seems more like the garden variety lying-with-an-element-of-truth I expect to see from an entertainment news source.
